Black Path - "Of Paint and Ash"


 
What's New: Black Path
Black Path's "Of Paint and Ash": A Soul-Crushing Masterpiece That Bleeds Dark Souls Vibes!
 
Athens’ own Black Path just unleashed "Of Paint and Ash", and holy hell, it’s a gut-punch of melodic death metal genius. Imagine trudging through Dark Souls’ grimiest dungeons, every riff dripping with despair, yet weirdly… beautiful? These Greek titans aren’t just playing music; they’re painting soundscapes of raw human struggle. And damn, it resonates!
 
Crushing riffs? Check. Guttural growls that’ll haunt your nightmares? Double-check. But here’s the kicker: they tossed in cellos (Kiara Konstantinou slays on "Descent"), a sax solo (Stavros Manthos on "Izalith", mind blown), even a mandolin (Stavros Parginos) and harp (Maria Malafi)! Talk about spice in your sonic stew. Recorded at Uni of Athens and 9800 Studios? Pro-level polish without losing that gnarly edge.
 
Dropped June 20th, it’s streaming everywhere: Bandcamp, Spotify, you name it. Peep the visualizer (Andrea Mantelli nailed it) here:
 
 
Since 2011, Black Path’s been grinding: EPs, singles, touring with beasts like Hate and Ulcerate. Now? They’re already teasing new material. But lemme tell ya, this album? It’s their magnum opus. Dark, relentless, yet… hopeful? Like finding a flickering torch in the abyss.
 
"Of Paint and Ash" ain’t just metal: it’s therapy for the damned. 10/10 would descend into madness again. Don’t sleep!
